Please do not issue anymore new licenses and the transfer of licenses for train and trial areas in Ontario. It is extremely inhumane and cruel to subject rabbits, coyotes, and foxes to the captivity and torture for use in dog training. Read more

This proposal is inhumane, and should not be allowed. Vertebrates are sentient and largely capable of complex emotions similar to our own. We should not allow unnecessarily cruel practices such as these to continue.

I can't believe this animal cruelty is legal in a developed country. Subjecting native wildlife to the terror and stress of being held captive and used to train dogs or be chased is disgusting. This type of behaviour does not belong in a civilized society. Read more

I think it's horrifying that this is happening in this day and age. It needs to be stopped, not expanded. Taking wildlife from their natural habitat is cruel and unjustifiable, especially for the purposes of training dogs to hunt them. Read more

Wow… very disappointing this is even being considered! Penned dog hunting facilities are cruel to the wild animals that are subjected to various methods used to train dogs to hunt.

Shame on Canada to even consider dragging humanity backward like this. This despicable, barbaric bloodsport was phased out in the 90's for that reason! This is organized ANIMAL FIGHTING, period! Read more

I firmly reject the Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry’s proposal to allow new licenses and the transfer of licenses for train and trial areas in Ontario. Penned dog hunting facilities are cruel to the wild animals that are subjected to various methods used to train dogs to hunt.

Please do not increase the amount of facilities that are subjecting wildlife to these conditions . Housing wild animals and subjecting them to stress and torture in the name of sport is unethical and our ministry should be considering this because it’s absolutely in acceptable in todays day in age.

Hunting pens are inhumane and unethical. Wild animals are captured and held in captivity to be subjected to further suffering through the training and trialing of hunting dogs. These archaic facilities have no place in today’s society.

Hunting pens are inhumane and unethical. Wild animals should not be held in captivity especially if they are subjected to cruelty, abuse, and suffering through the training and trialing of hunting dogs. Read more
